Question Squeaking Spring

Hey guys, I installed Vogtland GT500 springs and Koni Yellows not too long ago and the spring on the driver's side rear of the car is squeaking now. It usually squeaks when I brake hard enough to dip the nose of the car decently or when I hit some large bumps. I'm gonna put it on a lift in a week or so to try fixing it by messing around with it, but before I do that, I was wondering:

Does anyone have any ideas on what to look for? Or how to fix it? (Adjusting it, padding, etc.)

Thanks for the help!

I just installed Steeda Sport springs and Koni shocks about three weeks ago. I had a squeak for years with the stock springs and could never find it until I put in the Steeda's. Look at the top of the spring you think is squeaking for rub marks. In the top 2-3 inches. My stocker's had big time rub marks or I should say flats. The Steeda spring don't touch a thing so for.
